Hello, Adding my way to learn and interact as per today: First of all, reading the documentation available via website digiKam.org plus the digiKam recipes book. For user interaction, both to learn from others and my own queries, I use this e-mail list. The e-mail list is very useful to me. I follow digiKam at Mastodon and LinkedIn, that is primarily following the accounts as there is very limited interaction. I have not (yet) been using Reddit at all, but it appears to be interesting to consider.
